i need the answer asap plz A child rides her bike at a rate of 12.0 km/hr down the street. A squirrel suddenly runs in front of

her so she applies the brakes and slows to 8.0 km/hr in 0.25 sec. What is the acceleration of the bike rider during this period? 1.0 km/hr/sec -1.0 km/hr/sec 16 km/hr/sec -16 km/hr/sec

-16 km/hr/sec because she slows down 4 km/hr (12 - 8) in 0.25 seconds. in one second (0.25 sec * 4) she would slow down by 16 km/hr (4 * 4). it’s negative acceleration because she’s slowing down

Answer:      Acceleration of the bike rider during this period is   -16 km/hr/s

Explanation:Average acceleration is equal to change in velocity divided by time taken

therefore, a=\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}

=> a=\frac{8-12}{0.25} km/hr/s = -16 km/hr/s

Un cuerpo se lanza verticalmente hacia arriba con una velocidad de 13 m/s. ¿Cuánto tiempo tarda en alcanzar la altura máxima? a)
Elena L [17]

Answer:

D. 1.33 segundos.

Explanation:

El cuerpo es experimenta un movimiento en caída libre al modificarse su velocidad por efecto de la gravitación terrestre. Este cuerpo alcanza instantáneamente el reposo cuando se encuentra a su altura máxima, el tiempo puede obtenerse sabiendo la aceleración y las velocidades incial y final a partir de la siguiente ecuación cinemática:

v = v_{o}+g\cdot t

Donde:

v - Velocidad final del cuerpo, medida en metros por segundo.

v_{o} - Velocidad inicial del cuerpo, medida en metros por segundo.

g - Aceleración gravitacional, medida en metros por segundo al cuadrado.

t - Tiempo, medido en segundos.

Ahora se despeja el tiempo:

t = \frac{v-v_{o}}{g}

Si v_{o} = 13\,\frac{m}{s}, v=0\,\frac{m}{s} y g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, entonces:

t = \frac{0\,\frac{m}{s}-13\,\frac{m}{s}}{-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }

t = 1.326\,s

Por ende, la respuesta correcta es D.

A child sleds down a hill with an acceleration of 2.94 m/s2. If her initial speed is 0.0 m/s and her final speed is 17.5 m/s, ho
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

Explanation:

Given that the child accelerates uniformly and that both initial (v_{o}) and final speeds (v_{f}), measured in meters per second, and acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second, are known, we proceed to use the following kinematic equation to determine the time taken to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom (t), measured in seconds, is:

t = \frac{v_{f}-v_{o}}{a} (1)

If we know that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{f} = 17.5\,\frac{m}{s} and a = 2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, then the time taken is:

t = \frac{17.5\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s} }{2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }

t = 5.952\,s

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

A computational model predicts the maximum potential energy a roller coaster car can have given its mass and its speed at the lo
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the coaster car, m = 350 kg

speed of the coaster car at the lowest point, v = 25 m/s

The coaster car will have maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point and based on law of conservation of mechanical energy, the maximum kinetic energy of the coaster car at the lowest point will be equal to maximum potential energy at the highest point.

K.E_{max} = P.E_{max}

K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2} (350)(25)^2\\\\K.E_{max} =109,375 \ J

Thus, P.E_{max} = 109,375 \ J

Therefore, the prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J

An insulated rigid tank contains 3 kg of H2O in the form of a saturated mixture of liquid and vapor at a pressure of 150 kPa and
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

change in entropy is 1.44 kJ/ K

Explanation:

from steam tables

At 150 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001053 m^3/kg

vg = 1.1594 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.4337 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.789 kJ/kg

initial specific volume is calculated as

v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

      = 0.001053 + 0.25(1.1594 - 0.001053)

v_1 = 0.20964  m^3/kg

s_1 = Sf + x(Sfg)

     = 1.4337 + 0.25 \times 5.7894 = 2.88 kJ/kg K

FROM STEAM Table

at 200 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001061 m^3/kg

vg = 0.88578 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.5302 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.5698 kJ/kg

constant volume  sov_1 -  v_2  = 0.29064 m^3/kg

v_2 = v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

       =0.29064 = x_2(0.88578 - 0.001061)

x_2 = 0.327

s_2 = 1.5302 + 0.32 \times 5.5968 = 3.36035 kJ/kg K

Change in entropy \Delta s = m(s_2 - s_1)

              =3( 3.36035 - 2.88) =  1.44 kJ/kg
